At Sunday’s match the Breakers were honored to join the Exiles in remembering the life of Alexis Michele Weisser, a talented athlete, a devoted coach, and a radiant spirit who brought energy, warmth, and laughter to every rugby field and conversation she entered.
In Alex’s memory, players chose to wear purple tape to raise awareness for suicide prevention and to stress the importance of caring for one another, both on and off the field.

“As a Tongan-American my older folks often said ‘Remember, you’re Tongan first.’ To be Tongan is to Love God; and to live w gratitude 🙏🏽 I live by the 4 Pillars of my culture and it’s what I carry on to rugby – 1. Respect 2. Humility 3. Loyalty by putting myself on the line for my mates and building trust, and 4th is to Cultivate Relationships thru service and getting to know others.”
Shelby Lin, Scrumhalf 🇹🇼🇯🇵
Miriama Marawa, Wing 🇫🇯
“It honestly means everything to showcase my Fijian culture through language, music, clothing, and even drinking kava after games with a team from different cultural backgrounds. This is a blessing. Au sa rawata na ka kecega e na vukui i Karisito o koya sa vakaukauwataki au –
Filipai 4.13 which comes from one of my favorite scripture verse Philippians 4.13 | can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Mona Lisa Tupou, Prop 🇹🇴
“Being a Pacific Islander means the world to me. It is a blessing to represent my culture through songs, food, and dance. I have the privilege of having unique experiences that I can proudly call my own. It also signifies that the hard work and struggles my family endured to reach their current place in life do not go unnoticed; they are reflected in me.”
Taina Tukuafu, Scrumhalf 🇼🇸🇹🇴

"As a Filipina, it’s been amazing to connect with other pinay ruggers that are playing in WER! I hope it inspires other young Filipinas to find a home in sport whether it’s rugby or not. “Bahala Na” encourages me to let go of the uncontrollables and to take risks. It can roughly be translated to “let go let god”. I also hope to bring that adobo spice into my rugby and play in a way that is fun and creative. REP THE SET I LOVE BEING FILIPINO RAHHH 🇵🇭🦅"

"My dad is the youngest of 9 siblings who have nearly all stayed in the Bay Area since my grandparents immigrated from China to San Francisco. It’s special to be able to play for the place we call home, and I’m grateful to be part of the diverse histories of Chinese Americans in the Bay."
